This is a USB cable mount designed to fit on the cable chain to route the beacon's USB cable along the side or top. I designed it with hinges for after the Beacon install so you don't have to thread the cable. I created it to replace the zip ties I had currently holding the USB cable. It fits the QIDI Plus 4 chain but may fit others. They are 15mm X 9.5mm and fit chains with that measurement.

One design is for routing on the top, another top design should have enough room for the filament tubes (larger inner diameter) if you go that route. The other is along the side. I used one on top at the toolhead to get it above the swivel and side mounts the rest of the way. Make sure to mount it away from the pivot point on the chain so I can swivel with the chain.

To install, the opening should face up (hinge on the bottom), slide the bottom over the bottom of the chain then gently press the top into place.

Will need a probably need .16 layer to make the tolerances on the hinges work. I did not try it at .20. Best to use ABS or other high temperature filament if you run a heated chamber often.
